    ... again, there are more white people living in poverty than black people. In America. You cannot make up narratives when you wish to ignore numbers, then use numbers when you wish to ignore narratives.

    4.2 million white children are growing up in poverty.
    3.6 million black children are growing up in poverty.

    16 million white people live in poverty.
    8.8 million black people live in poverty.

    I don't want this to be about race. I want it to be about how you approach life. Racists aren't doing well nowadays and haven't for some time, there's too much money concentrated in democratic liberal cities. but people with false narratives are always going to be struggling whether they're listening to fox or cnn. you've got to speak up about real issues that CAUSE constant conflict with police while also demanding better treatment from cops. no matter what you say, things have improved a whole lot from the officer side from 30 years ago, but the other side it's the same old.

    The murder conviction rate in Chicago, the last time I checked was about 55%. If you were a white victim the conviction rate was far higher.

    Black victims only have their perpetrators convicted within a year about 20% of the tile in Chicago. (This is the last I checked last year)

    There are a few reasons for the conviction rate being only 50% in Chicago. First, the overwhelming majority of victims in Chicago happen in a small handful of neighborhoods and are drug/gang related. The victims are overwhelmingly black and there is little political pressure to solve these crimes.

    The reality is that the Chicago-land area is quite different than Houston. In Chicago the bad parts are far worse than any part of Houston. The bad parts are multi generational crime and poverty traps where black people have been segregated and treated like trash since the great slave migration over 100 years ago. These areas are effectively blocked from the rest of the city. The other parts of the city are far safer than any part of Houston. These areas are overwhelmingly white or wealthy immigrants.

    As long as the murders are limited to the inner city ghettos in Chicago the majority of citizens don’t care about black teenagers being killed.

    21% of Chicago's 2019 murders have led to an arrest of a suspect. Chicago did a better job than usual of solving previous years' murders which explains the 53% number.

    I asked that question because Mr. Scarface claimed that when black people are caught on video hurting someone they are almost 100% caught and convicted. Not the same situation here, I know, but I wanted to see what he thought about there being black people that murdered someone that haven't been caught and punished.

    I cannot speak about a black assailant. I can say that murdered black people are less likely to see their perpetrator caught.

    There is a reason why the white nationalists like him even when his daughter married Jared. He represents them in their eyes. They see their country having more people not looking like them. They want their white America back.

    The truth is coming out isn’t it. You don’t like black people do you?

    They did. He has over 100 arrests in his file including some for pretty vile sex crimes.

    Yet he walks the street. He's already been released for the attack on the 92 year old woman.

    I guess he's just another "victim" of systemic racial inequality. :rolleyes:

    For a 99'er, you seem kinda ignorant to not realize a thread can take all sorts of directions. And as far as I'm aware, in Clutchfans people are allowed to comment on any part of the thread they see fit. So....sorry, not sorry I have nothing to add to what you seem all wrapped up about. Maybe that's a testament to your thread making abilities...or maybe someone already stated something close to my thoughts on the matter, or maybe I just DGAF.

    Now, feel free to post about whatever is on YOUR mind.

    99ers always write about what's on our superior minds @Ziggy

    I know the thread has gone off course, so I'm putting back it on I-10.

    You really think that lowly about black people? If you truly respect black people, you would not make excuses for the criminal elements in their community. The black people that I know will be the first ones to tell you that the thug culture must go. All you have to do is open your eyes and see the truth. There are many successful black people in this country benefiting from the great system that we have, just like any other groups of people that have applied themselves. You have been sold a bill of goods by these fake news media, race baiters, Democrats that always highlighting the victim card to control people for their own gains.

    People all over this country are going completely and utterly stupid.

    I get the protests but this has gone far beyond that.

    You forgot the most important part about Chicago, Democrats’ firm tight grip of death on the city?
